We were out doing some aerials of some commercial properties around town and I snagged some video of our beloved fouts field:

I am throughly excited about the new stadium but have had some GREAT TIMES at Fouts over the years.

Also some aerials of the university:

Your bolded statement sums up my feelings perfectly. Won't miss that track at all, and wouldn't mind it if someone took this footage and put in a claymation Godzilla stomping it to the ground. But, for better and worse, there's been some great memories there. Thanks for posting this.

Well done...this is the irrefutable proof of the "closer the grosser" theory. The durn thing don't look half bad from the distance.

Have a feeling Fouts will look a lot better at closing time also.

I notice the parking lot looks great when it is full.

2 straight,

That is just amazing to see how far the stands are from the field - the aerial shots really show that.

Will be great to see the aerial shots of the Fouts Field demolition in 2011 :D

I thought Fouts was going to stick around a while after the new stadium opens, at least until we get a new track and field facility built.

You are correct sir....Master Plan does call for a new track facility, but won't be until 2015 by my best guess...Thats means at least 4 or 5 more yrs of Fouts lingering on...

If we are being "green" in the environmental sense, why not recycle the bleachers and seats at fouts? I'm being serious here. Seriously. :D

Would it save any $$$?

rv said it was less expensive to sell the old and buy new rather than recut and refit the old

The track almost looks like a muddy moat, like it's there to protect the field from the fans in the stands.

I'm glad I at least got to experience Fouts in my years attending UNT (in my final year), I just wish I could have had some of those good times that you all speak of.

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
